[Koha] Attaching files to catalogue records

[Indranil Das Gupta]

Hi,

On an AS-IS basis both # 1 & #2 are not possible. for the simple
reason that whatever is rendered / displayed by the browser is
essentially been downloaded *to* the device already.The max you can do
is make it difficult for the user, but hardly impossible for anyone
with more than simple basic internet browsing skills.

what you suggest is only possible through use of end-to-end DRM i.e.
the content, the viewer/browser and the computing device on which the
viewer is running/installed, but that is a discussion I would rather
not indulge in.

cheers
